Wow, a surprise mod out of nowhere, and about the early 18th century no less - this could turn into a dream come true.

Couple of questions: Will there be Danish and Prussian subsidiary troops? And where's the rest of the Habsburgs and the HRE, in addition to the Catalonians?

I know it's early days still and you're working on Gabby's mods as well (you must be veritable modding machines to not burn yourself out in the process), but I'm curious about those things, as the current faction list and description doesn't shed any light on their status.

Ack! Now I am a dufus! Yes HRE will be in the mod *smacks forehead*! There may well be Danes, Prussians, Savoyards added in as mercenaries or they could be worked in as factions. Portuguese too. We'll see how things progress. I am hoping to limit the extent of the map to the main campaign areas in Bavaria, Northern Italy, Spanish Netherlands and Spain etc. The HRE troop tree should include Hungarians and eastern European troop types of the HRE's eastern European possessions. Thanks for the heads-up and I amended the faction-list.

We're not machines. Wish we were. This is just something we will work on in downtime moments when we're not working on Gab's stuff. I already did a fair bit of planning in the last months by assembling uniform plates for the models and putting together some of the faction lists for the lords in the mod. So a lot of the groundwork was already done. We'll see how we go from here but we are excited to get it launched!

United Provinces is correct. Dutch Republic is also correct. They were referred to under both names. I just double checked that too.

The banner is very good work  :D. Would you like to let us use that?

Alan was testing from a model I sent him, yesterday, of Marlborough.

The top one looks closer to the Duke.

Drum will act as shield and he'll have a melee weapon. Also drummers and standard bearers will have morale bonus.
